[JOJO] BOSS Survival Diary

Polnareff doesn't quite remember how it all started.

Not referring to the matter of coming to Italy to investigate Arrow, but about Diablo.

The first encounter, if Dobio is counted, was in Egypt.

...In fact, even now, he still doesn't want to recall about Dobbio.

Why is it a boy?

Polnareff thought angrily.

No matter how you think about it, it's Diablo's problem.

Who would have imagined such a thing as a double personality?

It's not enough to use someone else's face or name, even with such a solid shell.

Before being cornered by Diablo and his investigators, Polnareff was not a cautious man.

During that...fight that cost him his right eye, the enemy's ability later put his life on the line.If it hadn't fallen into the sea, it would be very difficult to escape.

And even if he escaped smoothly, there are still many doubts left.

However, these doubts cannot be solved in time.

Because of Diablo——blocked news from Italy because of enthusiasm.

This doesn't mean that the enthusiastic BOSS continued to search for Polnareff. Who would be so cautious about a person who was dead in his own eyes?

No.

Yet the blockade is a fact.

Because the surveillance of enthusiasm is indiscriminate and monitors the whole of Italy.

The initial exposure was for this reason.

In the face of this neurotic caution he could only remain anonymous.

Fortunately, Diablo was unable to take the arrow from his hand.

His presence was purposeful... both for himself and for this arrow.Except for the fact that he was investigating him, Diablo was here for what he had in his hands from the very beginning.

A terrifyingly sophisticated intelligence network——

Or, it has something to do with his possibly predictable substitute ability.

In that battle, Polnareff did grasp the possibility of Diablo's substitute, but he failed to think of a way to fight head-on.

He can only wait.

Blocked the means of communication, lost an eye - even if the problem of communication is resolved later, he can only wait.

There must be no possibility of being discovered by Diablo.

As long as it is discovered, it will lose.

Even if there are many doubts in his words, even if he is very concerned about the arrow on his double's arm——

But don't rush.

He has lost precious things more than once because of his stubbornness and impulsiveness.

But the truth is Diablo still found him years later.

...No, that's not quite the right word.

The prelude was because Risut—the captain of the assassination team was investigating Diablo—he tried to contact him and revealed his intention to cooperate.

Risut, however, exposed some of his actions.

Polnareff, upon getting this news, decides...to ask Risut to reveal his existence to Diablo.

For a "dangerous character" like him, Diablo would definitely come to see him.

Whether the news is true or false.

After all, that enthusiastic godfather is such a cautious man.

He did show up.

For more than ten years, both those who betrayed Diablo and those who were loyal to him were Polnareff's enemies.

At night, those who investigated Diablo still hadn't cleaned up.But when he was preparing to fight as usual, he sensed an abnormality.

Time is eliminated.

Suddenly, a man with long pink hair appeared behind the investigator and stabbed him in the stomach with a double known to Polnareff.

He stood there, and the stand-in pulled out the arm inserted|inserted into the opponent's abdomen, and then shook his hand to the side to clean up the blood on it.

The man looked at him—

"Long time no see, Jean-Pierre Polnareff."

He called out his name, his blue broken pupils were full of malice.

"I heard—you're looking for me?"

--certainly.

Polnareff thought that Diablo was indeed the one he asked out.

Apart from the fact that this was the best option after Risut was exposed, it was also because he had something to confirm.

——Diablo didn't want to kill him.

Polnareff doesn't like to admit it, but Diablo's behavior told him so years ago.

The enthusiastic BOSS used his own existence to clean up the traitors in the organization, but he showed no interest in chasing and killing himself.It is impossible for such an attitude to be caused by pure confidence in one's own strength, after all...Compared with that kind of laziness, the man gave him a more cautious feeling.

Even so, this is just... a highly probable guess.

It's a gamble.

And the only bargaining chip in his hand is his own life.

Maybe, Polnareff thought, he shouldn't have gambled like this.

After all, his life probably doesn't belong to him, but to his partner who has passed away.

That was his burden.

But he had to gamble.

Because it's not impulsive.

Because otherwise, he would never know the truth.

It's not that difficult to hide, he has been hiding for ten years, how difficult is it to prolong this time?

He was going to see Diablo again anyway.

Then why not choose now.

Although... now that he has just finished fighting, the situation of facing Diablo seems to be calculated.

This is too bad.

But even so, he can only ask what he wants to ask first-whether Diablo will answer or not.

But the fact is that things beyond comprehension follow one after another.

The place that Diablo called Arakisou—although he didn't quite understand why he chose such a name—the people in it were very abnormal.

Just the fact that DIO is back from the dead is very abnormal.

And this DIO didn't even like him at all, and even invited him to play games.

Polnareff: "..."

This world no longer exists.

It’s not that I didn’t try to get out of this strange place later, but the door opened by his hand did not lead to a normal space, but a void.

Like a sub-air miasma space.

... Polnareff couldn't guarantee what would happen if he stepped inside.

What's more, the double was taken away, so he couldn't just escape like this.

Thankfully, he was at least half right with his bet.

Diablo didn't kill him—

Even though he knew the way to make the Requiem disappear, even though he had taken away his double and the bug arrow, he still kept himself.

But what to say...

"It turns out that you and Diablo knew each other..." Polnareff stared at Diego and said, "Do you think it was too easy for me to believe that you had nothing to do with DIO?"

"I didn't think so." Diego said as he took off his gloves when he came back from the outside, "...but I never thought he would bring you here."

"I've met three of you," he said, "so I can assume that... Dowie, who worked with Valentine in Egypt, also knows about this place?"

—he didn't like to think so.

Because as long as you think this way, you can only admit that Duowei is working for Diablo, even if the reason may be that he was deceived.

Immediately afterwards, before these questions were answered, Diablo threw his daughter to Araki Manor.

Polnareff: "..."

Huh?Got it wrong?Isn't Diablo's daughter Dovi?

Polnareff suddenly found that his previous logic was completely disrupted.

And the most frightening thing was that Diablo looked at his daughter with a kind of... tenderness in his eyes.

can you?Would a man like him have that look?

And once he had such an idea, Polnareff couldn't face Diablo squarely.

It's really killing me.

The silver-haired knight's judgment on Diablo has been overturned time and time again from the very beginning, but it seems that the world thinks this is not fresh enough, and it is stacked up again and again.Folded to the back, Polnareff went numb.

Even if Valentine explained to him in a serious manner that the place was full of ghosts, he couldn't wake him up from his numbness.

...But if they are all ghosts, there is a problem.

Diablo too?

Polnareff couldn't help but think so.

But he doesn't feel like it.

Or did the person himself not realize it?

This is not a question that can be asked for export.

His perception of Diablo has been biased from the very beginning. He is indeed a villain, and there cannot be any purely good people in the gang.And once there is that kind of guessing about ghosts, rather than saying that he wants to do evil, he is the kind of villain who steps on the weak to ascend to the throne——

Rather he wants to live.

...this kind of speculation is ridiculously funny.

No matter the reason, just guess based on intuition.

Even full of contradictions.

And this contradiction made Polnareff hate Diablo even more.

He later had contact with him for a long time, and had to contact this group of people who lived in Arakizhuang.

He knows a lot of things he shouldn't know—

...felt like listening to a story.

"Mr. Joestar when he was young?" Polnareff repeated Katz's words strangely, "Wait, so to speak—"

"You want to hear it? You want to hear it, right?" Katz said, "I won't talk about DIO. Would you like to hear the history of Yoshikage Kira being run over by an ambulance?"

"......"

How is this man so excited?

Thinking about it this way, is it Jotaro who is the MVP?

"I won't talk about what is called Ben DIO?" DIO was upset, "When I see what that old thing looks like now, Ben DIO will see if you are still interested."

"Of course I will try to find a way to see it." Katz glanced at him, "If he hadn't died, I would have eaten you, a vampire, first here."

"......"

"The humans who killed Wamuu and Esidish can only be killed by me, Katz."

DIO has written all over your face that you are sick.

It was only then that Polnareff guessed...the left hand that Joseph said was gloriously injured 50 years ago might have been caused by Katz.

The people here seem to have grievances and grievances with people related to Joestar——

If everything is true, Diablo cannot be an accident.

And these speculations stop at Diablo's decision.

One day...he suddenly said, you can go.

I was not as shocked as I expected.

thought Polnareff.

Maybe it was because he had already guessed that Diablo was such a person, knowing that he would let him go sooner or later, so he stayed in Araki Manor without fear, and even got along well with this group of people.

But he cares more about "why now" than "why let me go".

What problems did he deal with and how did he deal with them, what is Naples like now, and who did he kill for these purposes.

The drug group was wiped out by himself - Polnareff knew this.

After all, Diablo would come back here from time to time, complaining to these people.

The way he complained was different from Polnareff's perception.

When they first met, Polnareff had been investigating Diablo for a while.

Cautious and thoughtful, ruthless.

What was originally held in his hands should be such a conclusion.

The terror of Diablo and DIO——is different from the terror of the living DIO that Polnareff knew.

The very existence of DIO has a kind of...an oppressive feeling generated by inhumanity.He is powerful and beautiful, full of malice, a vortex that can attract like-minded people who voluntarily surrender.

Yet Diablo's sense of oppression comes from his mysticism.

Use harsh or weird means to exert pressure, and use decisive methods to erase the past.

reason.

Diablo's terror comes from...his cold reason.

Selfishness to the extreme, only thinking about his own gains and losses, no interest in unrelated people, and a kind of neurotic paranoia.

This kind of paranoia created his principles and methods of doing things.

It seems that this person is indifferent to all the emotions and loves that people have in the world.

That Diablo [demon] has no capacity for empathy.

However he is against DIO or Katz, Kira Yoshikage or Pucci...

When complaining to these people about what happened outside, when he met Jotaro Kujo, when he complained about who gave him trouble——

His expression is the distress of ordinary people, and the ease and comfort produced by someone being able to confide.

Even talking to Dobio—whom Polnareff later became aware of—Dobio would say that Diablo complained when he put him out there.

——Is Diablo the kind of person who could do such a thing?

...he actually did it.

He will buy milk for Yoshikage Kira.

Even bought two wardrobes of clothes for Trish Una ahead of time.

So when Diablo said the words to let him go, he was just... showing reluctance to his contradictory approach and confusion about the status quo.

...not that much confusion actually.

I also knew about Jotaro and that he came to Italy before, so in order to balance certain issues, it is natural to let him go.

What was more surprising was the fact that the silver chariot was also returned to him.

...Even if he left the silver chariot and made him an ordinary person without a substitute forever, it was only natural.

But he did give it back.

Even in Paris, the disobedient subordinates were cleaned up.

Everything he does can be said from his mouth to do it for a reason, and it is really logical——

But Polnareff just felt...he just wanted to do it.

Such an idea would be too bad for Diablo.

It is not an easy task to overthrow previous views or prejudices.

Even if you know it's not true.

But at least—

At least Diablo gave him a hand when he tracked down the remnants and chased after him without a substitute, and was almost shot.

That's when Polnareff was thinking...

Maybe he finally won the bet that was only half won.
